The change in 1993 in the system of taxes and charges of road freight transport, as the kilometre fee system was replaced by an auto diesel duty and an annual tax based on weight of vehicle, lead to an increase in charges of minor vehicles (vans e g) and a reduction for the bigger ones, as trucks with trailer etc. Furthermore trucks are now excepted from capital tax (7 per cent on retail price), whereas purchase tax of vans have been increased (now 20 per cent of import value).
